Wei Mountain explained in quite a detail, revealing everything they knew.
In a sense, he had already gone beyond the scope of the transaction, and it was sowhat verbose.
However, Su Huan was very patient. He could sense the situation on the battlefield outside, but Wei Mountain could not see it. Inside, he was burning with anxiety, but he had to feign calm while engaging in idle chatter with Su Huan.
The building shook strongly again. Even Tier One Evolver Wei Mountain could feel this intense energy fluctuation so close by, his face stiffened.
Su Huan stood up with a faint smile, "I’ve felt your sincerity. I’ll forgive this offense this ti, but you’d best not let there be another."
Su Huan turned and left, leaving Wei Mountain standing in the small conference room.
The nearby screen, used for decoration, suddenly lit up, instantly attracting Wei Mountain’s gaze.
The initially unfamiliar image on the screen soon revealed itself to be an aerial view of Chenxi Square. Hundreds of shops were evenly arranged on the square, surrounded by various interconnected buildings, forming a large nest.
This nest now had a huge wound, and before he could examine it closely, the screen switched images again.
It changed from an aerial panorama to a close-up.
Wei Mountain suddenly stood up because the center of the screen featured Wang Wu, the Tier Two Evolver he brought — the strongest defensive evolver of the entire division, cooperating with another Tier Two close combat strong attack evolver to stably suppress the Genetic Primordial.
Upon seeing this picture, Wei Mountain felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, chills spreading, making his limbs unresponsive.
Wang Wu’s appearance on surveillance ant their every move had long been under the watch of the train!
The plan to quickly snatch the Genetic Primordial had also utterly failed.
Wei Mountain took a deep breath, forcing himself not to think about the consequences, focusing instead on the image of Wang Wu. Right now, Wang Wu stood in place, using energy to outline pale virtual lines, layer after layer of energy barriers like a fortress enveloped him, but he still looked nervously upwards.
Due to the limited screen, Wei Mountain could not see what was above, but that made him even more curious.
The basic energy barrier Wang Wu summoned was equivalent to a two-centiter tal armor, easily defending against rifle bullets. If injected with extra energy, it could even withstand 12.7mm heavy machine gun rounds. Now, his piled energy barriers were enough to defend against small-caliber artillery, so what exactly was he afraid of?
The image suddenly flickered, and a black shadow abruptly fell from high altitude, crashing heavily onto Wang Wu’s delineated barricades.
After the explosive collision, the ground within a radius of several ters shattered and collapsed, with dust billowing outwards. The image could no longer maintain stability and plunged downward. The last thing he saw was the collapse of two small buildings on the edge.
Wang Wu was finished.
As for the other person, the outco goes without saying.
He now bore a stain almost as significant as losing the Genetic Primordial.
He probably wouldn’t even have the chance to retire.
How many cards did he have left now?
The Tier Two Evolver in support? That was no longer a trump card, but rather a witness to his failed plan.
That left only those two people.
Wei Mountain sighed wistfully.
Thinking it over and over, he suddenly realized the most valuable cards in his hand were actually those two data collectors who had long beco high-ranking mbers on the train.
He had notified them before the mission started, but they refused the order citing the ease of exposure.
Fortunately, they didn’t get involved. If they had been exposed, his last bit of value would have been gone.
Long ago, he had transferred them from Haywood to beco his subordinates, with contact solely through him. If the company wanted to maintain focus on the train, they would inevitably leave him so leeway.
Two high-level undercover agents were often more crucial than frontline warriors.
After sorting everything out, Wei Mountain took a long breath and walked out of the eting room. The auction next door was his real battleground, determining the company’s attitude towards him.
Without Wei Mountain’s interference, the auction progress suddenly improved significantly, but the prices also fell back to normal levels, much to Su Huan’s regret.
The small Crown Pear was taken on the spot by Donghuang Heavy Industry at the cost of two sets of Tier One to Tier Five profession formula conjectures, and one set of direct Tier Two profession potion.
If the value of the forr was not clearly defined, the latter truly moved the train leader — with profession potions, plus so Basic Attribute Potions, one could steadily cultivate a Tier Two Evolver, alleviating the shortage of high-tier evolvers on the train.
At the Tier Two threshold, the talent gap was already visible.
For instance, Lin Jin entered Tier Two early, while those like He Jie, who started the evolution path even earlier than Lin Jin, were still stuck at the peak of Tier One.
As for Lin Xi, Director Xu intentionally suppressed her evolution speed, but now both professions were close to the edge of evolving.
The combined value of the three items far exceeded the life force increase brought by Crown Pear, but they purchased it not for consumption, but for the possibility of cultivating Crown Pear Trees.
In addition to Crown Pear, the auction of other items and the commission also brought great benefits to Su Huan.
Many forces had traveled over mountains to attend the auction; Donghuang Heavy Industry sent only two people — naturally, they couldn’t bring large quantities of basic materials, so it was all hard currency like Pan-energy Crystals and Genetic Potions, and the train’s commission taxed these items. The difference alone made the train leader very satisfied.
As the transaction concluded, everyone left with either excitent or somberness.
